Hah!
Funny you say that.
I know someone who lives there.
At the time when “War of the Worlds” was live on the radio and people just tuning in didn’t know it was just a show, the locals went nuts. They actually shot the water tower in Grover’s Mills!
re: people just tuning in
The program running before of War of the Worlds on many stations ran over a couple of minutes and their listeners missed the part of the show that explained it was fiction.
